Bible Outpost

I recently stumbled on an article over at the theAtheist that needed to be addressed. The article was written in 2010 in response to a Washington Post story, Discrepancies don’t shake Christians’ faith in the Bible, which covered a Christian college student who was (and hopefully still is) not bothered by charges that the Bible is full of errors.

Today Bible Outpost is starting a prophecy series following the Decline of America. The Greeley Gazette has an article about the increased push to legalize pedophilia. To build support for their cause, pedophiles have started arguing that their desires are no different than homosexual or heterosexual desires.

Scientists have recently discovered the first planet orbiting a binary star after analyzing data collected from the Kepler Mission. It was previously thought only single stars would have planets due to the gravitational changes imposed by binary stars (extreme gravitational change would likely cause unstable orbits for any planets able to form). The discovery is significant since most Sun-like stars are members of binary systems and it suggests we will be finding more Earth-like planets than previously thought.

Dr. Hugh Ross has released another informative article examining some of the properties the Milky Way galaxy possesses which make it suitable for life. People who believe life is common throughout the Universe often point to the vast number of galaxies to support their position. But the devil is in the details.

An Israeli Scientist has won the Nobel Prize for chemistry. Dan Shechtman was awarded the prize for his work on quasicrystals – a form of crystal where the atoms are ordered, but not repeating. The story proves that long held scientific beliefs can be overturned in an instant.

The Israel National News is reporting that work is continuing on a Mosque located on the Mount of Olives despite an official ruling that work must stop. The new extension will be located just feet away from the graves of deceased Jews.
